The Protector

Every woman craves the attention and protection of the man who will love her and keep her safe. Yet ever since she was a child, Ella has accepted the fact that no one wants to be her friend. She believes it's due to her tall stature, the fact she has to wear glasses so she can see, and her plain, old brown hair. No one has ever wanted to be friends with Ella, except her best friend Corrine. So Ella has resolved to stay alone, and take care of her parents. She knows no one will ever fall in love with her.

Fate steps into her life when her father passes away and she has to care for her ailing mother. When she too passes away, Ella is forced to auction off her families belongings and farm just to be able to live with no other family. What's worse is that the boy she had a crush on in her childhood, Loyal Weaver, is now the man who is buying up all her belongings as well as the home she thought she would always live in.

Now she lives in a small apartment in town with her friend, Dorothy, who has agreed to provide her with a place to stay and a job. After all since no one will ever fall in love with Ella, she doesn't think the arrangement isn't too bad. It seems to work out for the best until Ella begins to spend too much time with Loyal and Corrine and not enough time with her. All of a sudden, Ella begins to question her safety the more time she spends with Dorothy. Will she ever find love or will she be left all alone just like she has always believed.

In the sequel to Shelley Shepard Gray's Families of Honor series, The Protector, picks up right where the Caregiver left off. This is a wonderful transition into the second book and I completely enjoyed this one as much as the first one. This time we get to know more about Ella Hostetler's life growing up in the Amish community alone without her family to support and guide her. Living a life as a woman alone, it makes her choices more difficult, not knowing if there are what is best for her. We also get to experience what is must feel like to be treated like an outsider within your own community through Ella's eyes and just how God will chose to answer her prayers.

I received this book compliments of Christian Fiction Blog Alliance for my honest review and LOVED it. Now I can't wait for the continuation in this series with The Survivor coming out in the fall of 2011. This book rates a 5 out of 5 stars for a great Amish romance story that will leave the reader wanting more!

Product Review Policy

I am an Christian independent book/product reviewer who will be more than happy to review any products or books for you as long as they are faith, family or Christian based. I've been reviewing books, DVD's CD's, and products for almost 6 years now and enjoy the opportunity to provide quality honest reviews for my readers.

I love all genres of books and have refused to pick just specific categories as I have found that I would have missed out on some great products by doing that. The only books I won't review are books outside the Christian market, for my own personal religious beliefs.

I would also be more than happy to post the review on one consumer site such as Barnes and Noble, Amazon, Christianbooks.com, etc. I am not paid for my reviews and receive the products compliments of the companies that wish me to review their products. This is disclosed within the review.

If you would like to have me review your products or books, please contact me via my email address in my profile.

My rating system is as follows with every novel beginning with 5 stars, deductions of a full star with each category

- 1 Contains sexually explicit content or descriptions.

-1 Contains profanity.

-1 labeled as a Christian novel and clearly isn't.

-1 contains witchcraft, sorcery, or new age content. This does not apply to spiritual warfare novels from a Christian perspective.

-1 Content is poor-written or has so many characters the reader is helplessly lost or ideas that confuse the reader to the point they simply want to throw the book away.

-In accordance with the new FTC Guidelines for blogging and endorsements, you should assume that every book reviewed here at Reviews From The Heart was provided to the reviewer by the publisher, media group or the author for free andments were received, unless specified otherwise.
